Cube smart is I a very safe location in South West Evanston on Oakton just East of McCormick next to the big sports Dome which is a very busy safe area with all the family sports activities at that Dome. So we feel quite comfortable popping in there on way from Ohare Airport for family visits. The facility is very well run with great staff and is spotless. We get what we need for our 3-4 visits per year from California to see kids , grandkids, etc . So can't say enough. It's an awesome experience. It's well worth what we pay. Manager, great guy , around a lot too. 5 stars

Jamal at the front desk was very…read moreprofessional, and patient, as there were many people coming in and out constantly asking questions or needing assistance all while he was trying to help us. When I was out of state, I called needing his assistance, and he was more than willing to help me out. I was grateful because I was 3000 miles away, and would not be able to do anything from where I was at. They were informative about the locks. I could use any one I wanted, but they recommended their locks because they are more difficult to break into. When I looked at the difference between the one I had brought with me, and their preferred lock, I ended up buying their lock! Also - bring a tarp, or purchase one there. They do recommend it for the storage areas that are not heated, and suggest that you don't put things up against the wall if you don't need to. Overall - helpful suggestions, and good service. Would certainly rent space here again.

Their indoor area is also kept clean and lots of space. The boxes are nicely stacked. Check in was easy and service was helpful. The van was new with 580 miles! I was so happy and the van was new so it road very smoothly and smelled still new. I was also surprised to see the rear view mirror had a camera built in when reversing with made me more comfortable and relieve to drive a big van. The side mirrors too had the dual mirror where one of it has the wide view to see the blind spots, which was so helpful. I had loaded my coaches easily and the trip was fun.

Called to see if anything could be done about some charges on my account and Adil was probably the most unhelpful person I've ever encountered. If it wasn't such a hassle, I would have been out of there months ago and into a different unit with a different company entirely. New customers beware! My rent on both of my units has DOUBLED during the time I've rented with them. Adil the "assistant manager" basically told me they have thousands of customers so they really don't care about anyone individually. I mean, we know this is true, but you typically wouldn't say that outloud to a paying customer who has rented from you for over a decade. Yikes. Then he hung up on me. I wish I had a solid storage facility that I felt good about recommending to my clients because this ain't it. They must be paying people to review because honestly I cannot understand how they have such positive reviews. I've never had a good experience with any employee here. Take your business elsewhere if you can, I wish I had years ago. Beware beware beware!

They offered me no compensation and not even any acknowledgment of responsibility. I was treated very rudely by the local staff and managemnt. DO NOT USE THIS FACILITY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!

They lure you in with discounted pricing and then once your stuff is in there, they jack it up. When I complained, they shrugged. And when I asked when the next one was coming, they said probably after 6 months. So if you plan on using it for longer term storage, not a good choice. I've rented in other places before and they raised prices once a year. I'll be looking to move my stuff asap.
